Centring Mothers’ and Young People’s Lived Experience of Family Violence to Inform Systems Change in the Health Sector

It was a pleasure to be invited to speak with youth advocate, survivor, and budding psychologist Nikoletta in conversation with Professor Stephanie Brown. The Stronger Futures Centre for Research Excellence is an initiative to inspire, encourage and support clinical and population health researchers to work towards greater social inclusion and equity in research. Stephanie’s groundbreaking longitudinal studies have opened our eyes to the appalling prevalence and life-long outcomes of family violence. Together, we explored the opportunities to transform the system to break the cycle of intergenetional trauma.
